An Alarming Evil.

One Of the saddest and most alarm
ing evils among US, is the want Of pa
rental discipline, and tho lawless spirit
resulting from it among tho youth Of
our land.
American children generally govern
their parents. When they get beyond
the period Of infancy they almost become
young gentlemen and ladies'. Boys
and girls are generally to very slight
extent under the oversight Of their pa
rents. Not unfrequently they are sent
into the streets that the mother may not
DO troubled with them, aud such boys
very quickly acquire all the accomplish
ments which belong to young men of
the period. The girls walk the streets
arrayed in the fashions Of the day, and
read tho immoral papers, and before they
enter upon womanhood often have their
minds corrupted with false views Of life,
and imagiuations excited by images ruin
Gus 10 mind and heart.
Why, with such an education as our
young people generally obtain, need one
DO surprised at the dissipation Of our
young men, and the fast habits Of some
Of our young women ? The evil seeds
that are being sown every day in our
streets must be expected TO take root
and in due time spring up with deadly
fruit. Has not the time come for pa
rents to watch moro closely the impress
sion for time and eternity being daily
made upon the minds Of their children !?

A Young Man of Nerve.

Speaking Of nerve,' chimed in nm
other club man, Il will tell you story
Of a young man, the son Of one of our
largest manufacturers. who displayed The
greatest nerve Of any man ever heard
of. He was an officer in the navy, on
one of the old hulks of our boosted
squadron. which had the honor to escort
Gen. Grant on some Of his excursions
along the coast of China. The aforesaid
hulk or vessel was off the coast Of Japan,
in that most treacherous Of all seas,
caught in terrific gale. Everything
was done to make her weather the soa,
but tho violence Of tho storm continued
unabating, and it was found that tho
boat would 90 to pieces. The officers
and seamen were called on deck. and it
was the unanimous opinion that is was
only a question Of time, and a mighty
short one, when she would succumb TO
the elements. The small boats were all
put in order, stock Of provisions was
placed in each, and the officers and crew
were parceled of for the different boats.
Everything was ready to put of at
moments notice, and every one was ex-
pecting terrible struggle for life, IL
not death by drowning
"The suspense was something i'm
possible to conceive unless one has had
similar experience A man can look
forward TO being hung or shot with
comparative intrepidity, but TO face
drowning is a torture Of the soul most
narrowing. This young man knew no
fear, never knew any, and probably
never will. He was born fearless and
he cannot help it. While all the other
officers and men were on deck ready and
waiting TO jump in their boats. he quiet
ly remarked "that as there seems to be
nothing else to do, I'll go down and take
a nap" And no went down TO his cabin
and went to sleep. Fortunately the YES
sci rode out Of the storm in few hours
and was safe This young man of nerve
was the hero of those terribly anxious
hours, and his brother officers delight TO
repeat how he said las there seems moth
ing else to do, I'll go down and take
nap."-Chicago Journal.

A writer in the Boston Journal says /:
"If want to tell woman's temper I
watch her eyclids. You can read man
the same way, but not so readily. A
woman with fiery temper will move
her eyolids with snap, aud that snap
betrays her. Another who is easy GO
ing and hard TO arouse moves her eye
lids languidly. Ono with quick brain
and temper, furious when aroused, just
winks steadily. neither quickly nor slow
ly, until engaged in interesting CONVEX
sation."

WINTER ADJUSTMENTS.
Mayor Ames Wants Horse Racing
Berry EyOnerated.


At the beginning of yesterdays meet
ing of the park commission committee
of citizens owning property along Min
nehaha creek appeared and asked for
an informal expression as to whether,
if land along Minnehaha creek, from
Humboldt avenue to the Soldiers home,
is donated for boulevard the board
would agree to accept it and improve it
at some proper time. 1t was stated
that the land given would allow boule-
ward practically 200 feet wide, and the
board by vote indicated that such a
proposition would be favorably received.
Notice was received from the county
auditor that the maximum rate of taxa

committee appointed Oh winter sports,

could be made as great source of pleas
The committee to which was referred
the communication of G. Nee. Reeve, in
regard to the refreShment and amuse-
ment privileges at Lake Harriet, re-
ported fourteen suggestions covering
the general improvements that should
be made, including the widening of the
driveway opposite the motor station, by
filling in the lake SO as to make the
beach line straight; the building of
docks, boat houses, refreshment stands,
bath houses, adornment of the boule-
ward, swings for children, etc. The
committee also reported a proposition
from Mr.. Reeve to lease for the term of
two years, for 81 $50 for each year, such
buildings, or he would build them and
pay per cent. on their cost, and sell
them to the park commission. The re-
port was placed on file.
Commissioners Sutherland and Brown
to whom was referred certain news
paper charges against Supt. Berry re-
ported that he should be fully eXoner-
ated, as they believed the charges to be
without foundation. President Loring
added that he had personally investi-
gated the charges and found them

before the board and requested steps
should be taken to purchase ten acres

Mareck also asked for the First ward

4 TRIP THROUGH THE TUNNEL
was made yesterday by GLOBE re-
porter, and as Con remarked it was ssthe
first time, by the bones of O'Toole,
paper had interprlze enough to spoke of
it, A stairway leads down through
the engine room and thence to a gully
in the river bank, where the tunnel has
been pierced and track laid on which
to haul sand out and building material
in. A clean car was brought out and
with seats laid across the top resembled
an Irish jaunting car. The party was
furnished with lanterns, and climbing
aboard, two stout workmen pushed the
car into the bowels of the earth. The
best idea of the tunnel is obtained from
the following sectional view:

situation would be far worse. The gen.
eral public knows an immense tunnel is
now being constructed beneath the
heart of the city, to drain the entire
North side and carry off the noisOme
waters of BaSSett'S creek, but few indi-
viduals are aware of the difficult engi-
neering feat being slowly brought to
success by Engineer Sublette.
Still fewer people know anything of
the similar undertaking on the East
side. to say nothing of the details. OF
the tens of thousands who daily cross
Main street at Central avenue not one
in a thousand ever knows there is tun-

vicinity of Maple Hill cemetery. The
work began in February last,
in charge, under Engineer Rinker. of
L. t. Deterly, of the city engineering

three-quarters of mile. The line of
the tunnel, beginning at the southern
end, follows the course and angles of

feet below the surface and about eighty
feet from the shore line of the river.
